Anyone know whether the Killzone Shadow Fall DLC is a multiplayer Voice Pack or a Single Player system voice?
I thought Limbo was gonna be free this month for Plus members on Vita?
I got Puppeteer have PS+ and I like it alot. The look of the game is fantastic...
Eh, nothing for me.
Man I can't wait for PS2 games to be sold on PSN...
@JaxonH PSN has PS2 Classics, unless you mean something else?
Anyways, I'm looking forward to buying Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga when I can afford to.
@ToddlerNaruto
???
I own a PS4 and Vita, and neither has PS2 Classics for sale on PSN. And last I checked, neither did the PS3 other than a small selection. I want to play them on a system I own. And have a full selection, particularly Shadow of the Colossus, which had been my dream to play on Vita since I bought it.
@JaxonH PS3 does have PS2 Classics for sale on PSN. Here's a list of the PS2 Classics I plan on buying for my PS3.

Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 FES ($9.99) - April 10, 2012
Max Payne ($9.99) - May 01, 2012
Syphon Filter: The Omega Strain ($9.99) - May 22, 2012
Psychonauts ($4.99) - August 28, 2012
Grand Theft Auto III ($9.99) - September 25, 2012
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas ($14.99) - December 11, 2012
Bully ($9.99) - December 19, 2012
Red Dead Revolver ($9.99) - December 19, 2012

Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne ($9.99) - May 06, 2014
Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga ($9.99) - May 20, 2014
^ That sure as heck doesn't seem like a small collection to me, ;P.
@ToddlerNaruto
I think you're missing my point. That's a LONG post that you didn't need to make. .
I wasn't arguing "Oh, the PS3 doesn't have a good selection, prove me wrong". I don't care what's on PS3. It could have every single last PS2 game ever released, and it would still do me no good whatsoever. I own a PS4 and Vita. What good is the world's largest collection if it's not available on the consoles I own? My point was that I can't wait until I have access to purchase and play PS2 games on PSN, which at the present time I do not- neither on my handheld or my home console.
With that said, I hope they end up doing better than that list you posted up there.
Sorry JaxonH, I must have misread your earlier comments.
Why not just buy yourself a PS3 then? They're only $250 New now ($200 Used: Like New if you know where to look).
